For work or play. The Ara Commuter Series are everyday packs with true outdoor heritage. Ara is an indigenous New Zealand Māori word meaning ‘path’. Every day we choose our own path, whether it’s commuting in the city, walking the dog in the park, exploring the trails in the forest, or travelling the globe. The Ara packs are highly functional and extremely comfortable. Equally at home in the urban jungle or the outdoor playground, these packs are ready for commute or weekend adventures.

Carefully crafted with renowned Macpac AzTec canvas, this pack has outstanding strength and weather resistance to keep your belongings safe in changeable conditions. The Flax-Back moulded back panel is inspired by the ridged leaves of the Harakeke (New Zealand flax), and provides comfort, airflow and ventilation when you’re on-the-move.

Here at Macpac, one of the best things we can do is create quality gear that's beautifully designed and better for the planet. That's why we crafted the Ara 19.
